Good news galore

Hello pipos (copying naijachikito), what's up folks? Anyway, i had the itch to blog so i thought why not? I have just been surrounded by good news from friends and family. My gal, Sapphire Aster got into one of the top schools for her graduate studies, all expenses paid. The mister has two lucrative internships to choose from, we're in a dilemma now as to which one he should choose. Funny thing is that the 2nd intership offer, from one of the big pharmaceutical companies whose main head office is in NJ, he never applied for. He just attended a conference where he spoke to the guy from the company and he handed him his resume, only for them to email him yesterday with a letter of offer. I mean, that's just awesome. The 1st internship offer is with the top federal agency responsible for giving universities and professors and other scholars grants. I just thank God o, ni to ri, he has been a very good God. I use these testimonies as a point of contact for anyone looking for good jobs/ internships/ admission to school, that the good Lord will remember you and bless you indeed. Men and women, old and young will rejoice with you. What God has in store for you, no eye has seen, no ear has heard, neither can any mind conceive it.

Anyway, my pipos can u imagine these yeye people at my work place have started deducting social security tax from my pay, say wetin na. I sha received my pay and saw that it was significantly reduced, then i called them only to find out. I am pissed o. Anyway, thank God for the provision. I got my first electric and gas bill for 34 days. Omo mehn, $121 kini was what i saw, i was flabbergasted! Wetin i use now??? My friend is coming to visit first week in April, i have not seen that chic since we left Naija, so it should be loadsa fun. Searching for an apartment is no joke at all. I have been looking online frantically and have come up with about 4 places that look good, so i need to fix a date ASAP to go check 'em out and sign a lease and all.

My aburo is at the NSBE conference in Orlando right now. I pray he gets an internship. What else is there to yarn? Nothing. Oops! l forgot. there's this oyinbo gal i work with at the elementary school. She helps out just like my friend and i do. So this yeye gal is always snitching on us, that we eat all the kids snacks o. When as a matter of fact, everyone does and the supervisors see us eating o. My friend and I have decided to show this olodo gal pepper, infact her gist is for another day. Till i come ur way again pipos, have a blessed Easter.
